Divorce Grounds

UNDER UK DIVORCE LAW assets considered for equal share?

I separated from my husband 3 years ago and am now filing for a divorce under UK law. How are assets considered - is it the value they were 3 years ago at time of separation or is the value of these assets as they are now? The main assets in this case is the value of the house we shared which was valued at 240k pounds. It is now valued at 170k pounds.

  1. Ideally you will (because you may) decide that between yourselves. If not, a judge will do it for you, and he/she'll look more than the current / purchase price, there will be all kinds of factors considered.
  2. I think it will maybe depend on who has been living and paying for the house since the split. If you have been jointly paying for it then any loss or profit would be shared on todays price. If only one of you has been paying it its only fair that the profit/loss seen in the three years goes to that person and the rest of the split 50/50
